The button is locked and it wont unlock the air dry setting, so i cant wash my load

CL is child lock. Press and hold the child lock button(maybe a key icon) for three seconds to unlock

Sounds like the switch that tells the controller that the door is closed and locked is actually bad or the plastic molded part holding the switch is broken. Inspect the interface for cracks.

Hello & Welcome to FixYa

After reading your question the issue seems to be with the control that is locked and needs to be unlocked to solve the issue. To unlock the control press and hold the RINSE ONLY/AIR DRY button for 15seconds. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

Press and hold 'dry' & 'spin' that should unlock OR Try holding the "end of cycle" button down for 5 seconds.

I think it is the Control On button and the cancel button. My locked and I can get it to shut off but it won't come back on.

More than likely it is a shorted key. replace the touch panel.

LO means bad door lock switch or conrtol board. to get it open unlock manually by pulling plastic cable located in dispenser where soap is put in.

I called Whirlpool on 08706008989. The machine can only dry half a load of washing at a time. At the end of the washing cycle, the Programme dial should be at either the sun or half sun symbol. Remove half the washing, set the drying time via the drying time dial and press the 1/2 Load Dryer button - Voila dry clothes!
